Forum Overview :: Rants :: Re: I don't think you're allowed to make use of lowered expectations

[quote name="blackwater"]I'm more of an ape than a monkey. Humans are hominids, after all, also known as great apes. The more you know! I enjoyed a lot of the original Star Trek movies (I think 2 and 6 were my favorites) but I always saw Star Trek as schlock, in the Buck Rogers tradition. I can't imagine a non-campy rendition of Star Trek, any more than I could imagine a "serious" remake of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. In fact, I think a serious remake would lose everything that was good in the original, and be awful. Kind of like "Enterprise" was supposed to be, although I never watched that show. If you created a somewhat more serious version of Trek that didn't suck, it would probably be a lot like Babylon 5. This may piss you off as a ST fan, but in your heart, you know it's true.[/quote]
